Ahhh.... the beauty of a Dream~

For a while now, I have been thinking a *LOT* about .... "things".... about WHAT MATTERS... about Life and LIVING...Maybe some of you have noticed, by my previous blogs:Like, "The Pursuit Of HappYness" (07-21-2013) ~

The MESSAGE that I received from that movie has STAYED with me... I still think about it often. Not necessarily "the movie"-- as far as the actors, entertainment, etc... but the MESSAGE. The PERSERVERANCE. The "DOING WHATEVER IT TAKES"-- which is one of my mottos in life (just ask my kids! hee!hee! ;) I *love* the message of that movie-- the GENUINE INSPIRATION from that man's TRUE STORY-- that man's LIFE. As I mentioned in my original blog about the movie, *my* dreams and aspirations are about as OPPOSITE as you can get from his!! hahaha!! But THAT'S not the point. The point is GO AFTER YOUR DREAMS and what your heart desires. Make a difference in your life... because you only have ONE life...

Which leads me to another previous blog, "On What Matters..." (06-22-2013) ~

Remember that one? That quote has SO impressed within me! Maybe note as "words" that I can quote verbatim... but as TRUTH that has made itself a part of me. Do we REALLY cherish the time we have been given? Do we REALLY value our moments? Do we spend our life WISELY?

It seems SO EASY to get caught up in SO MANY things that hold NO true value, spending the precious moments of our life filled with things that DRAIN OUR LIFE until it's been wasted-- then GONE. This week I saw a facebook post that is humorous-- but TRUE. It was this picture:

The same time I saw this picture, I saw another post from someone else that expressed a desire to be at a beautiful place with the picture they posted. I have noticed for a while how *SO MANY* people post *SO MANY* pictures of restful, beautiful places of retreat (myself included) and always say HOW MUCH they would like to live like there or someplace like it...WELL.... WHY NOT?? *Make it HAPPEN* :D LIFE IS TOO SHORT to be a slave to this society. Time is passing... and waits for no one. Make a goal and DO WHATEVER IT TAKES to achieve that goal. LIVE your DREAM...

THAT is EXACTLY what *I'M* attempting to do! NO MATTER HOW LONG IT TAKES. FOR REAL. *MY* Dream, for those who have not explored my website enough to know, is to get out of debt and live in a tiny house (2-story storage unit) which will be transformed into our *cozy cottage*... crazy sounding, I know ;) But it's *my* dream-- you can enjoy your *own* hee!hee! :D Here's what I'm talking about:

*Thank you to my *new* facebook friend, Elisheba Bat'Yah, for sending me this *beautiful* blog link: www.shabbychictinyretreat.blogspot.com :)SO... WHAT is *YOUR* dream??? I highly encourage you to MAKE IT HAPPEN! ;)
